Kiangnan. Kuang-hsü 20 Cents CD (1899) MS64 PCGS, Nanking mint, KM-Y143A.2, L&M-225, Kann-77b. Old style dragon variety. Highly elusive above the Choice Mint State grade level. This near-Gem beauty is soft-white and shows signs of being both satiny and frosty. The dragon obverse is notably lacking distracting abrasions and the appealing central motif is very well-defined.
